"Yes, this auction was jointly launched by the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce. It is the most prestigious collection event in China. Ordinary wealthy people can't even get an admission ticket."

"Every year, many rare and precious items appear at the auction, so I went there in advance to take a look and also to see my cousin."

"cousin?"

"Yes, her name is Song Yuting. She is the apple of the eye of the Song family in Shanghai. We grew up together abroad and have a very deep relationship."

"After I returned to China, I saw her less often. This time, I took the opportunity of the auction to get together with her."

She paused, then smiled and said, "When you come to Shanghai, I'll introduce you two."

The two chatted for a while longer.

Cao Kun mentioned that Qian Xining bought a Maybach G650 for Qian Haoran, saying that he is driving it now.

Qian Xining laughed and said, "You're really childish, trying to steal his car too."

However, it seems that Qian Xining has no intention of seeking justice for her younger brother.

It seems like once it's stolen, it's stolen.

Cao Kun said, "That car is currently parked in Jinning, sitting there unused, which is a bit of a waste. How about I find someone to transport it to Shanghai, and you can help me modify it?"

Qian Xining was also somewhat excited upon hearing this.

Besides her interest in martial arts, she also enjoys modifying off-road vehicles.

Cao Kun entrusted her with modifying this Maybach G650, which perfectly captured her interest.

"What do you want?" she asked.

"Safety first, just a little faster and that's enough."

"Okay, I'll go look into it now." Before she could finish speaking, the phone had already been disconnected.

Cao Kun stared at his phone, speechless.

"Where else can we go?"

He thought for a moment, then called Wang Meng and drove to the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Upon arriving at the city bureau, Cao Kun dialed Yu Zhiqing's number.

"Cao Kun! You're back? What brings you to call me?"

When the call connected, her voice was filled with joy.

"Where are you?" Cao Kun asked.

"Sigh, still busy at the bureau." She sighed.

"Want to come out for a coffee?" Cao Kun then invited.

A moment later, Yu Zhiqing walked quickly out of the municipal bureau building.

She was wearing a police uniform, her neat blond hair tied back. Although she stood tall, one could vaguely sense a hint of weariness.

The two found a coffee shop nearby.

After they sat down, Cao Kun said with some concern, "What have you been busy with lately? You look like you're working very hard."

She sighed softly and said in a low voice, "I've been busy with He Yichen's case."

Cao Kun was taken aback: "Haven't we already caught them? Why are we still making such a fuss?"

Yu Zhiqing shook her head and sighed: "This case is very complicated, and there is a lot of resistance from above."

"above?"

She nodded, her tone heavy:

"He Yichen's identity is much more complicated than we thought, involving powerful families in Beijing, making it even more troublesome than the case of those four people in Yanbian."

At this point, she suddenly paused, her eyes flickering slightly, and tentatively asked, "What happened to those two people from Yanbian?"

Cao Kun immediately understood that she was referring to Park Duan-ki and his brother.

According to Cao Kun's idea, the two men could simply be buried somewhere.

But the fox spirit insisted that as long as Park Duan-ki's psychological defenses were broken, there would be a way to completely tame him.

So Linghu stayed in Jinning, where he set up a security training base and was responsible for training the two brothers.

Cao Kun smiled faintly: "The problems of those two people have been resolved."

Yu Zhiqing didn't press the matter further and wisely kept quiet.

In fact, the Yanbian duo are still wanted criminals by the Changteng police.

Logically, once she had a lead, as the captain of the criminal investigation team, she should have investigated and reported it.

But she pretended not to hear anything and remained silent as usual.

As the captain of the criminal police team, Yu Zhiqing has always been conscientious and upright.

But since Cao Kun was involved in this matter, she had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

Cao Kun held her hand with a touch of heartache.

"Why do you always make yourself so tired?"

Her cheeks flushed slightly, but she didn't pull away.

Ever since Cao Kun broke through the encirclement to save her that night, her heart has been irrevocably taken back.

But she also knew that Cao Kun had too many women around him.

Especially Qian Xining, who is her best friend, and the two are like sisters.

She never imagined that one day she would become her sister's mistress.

But she was unwilling to let go.

Cao Kun didn't let go, quietly observing her reaction.

He slowly relaxed his grip when he saw that the tips of her ears had turned blush.

"Are you free tonight? I'd like to treat you to dinner, just the two of us."

Yu Zhiqing hesitated, her voice so soft it was almost inaudible: "But... I still have to work."

Cao Kun gently brushed the hair from her forehead and whispered in her ear, "Seeing you working so hard, I feel sorry for you."

"I'm going to make sure you get a good rest tonight, no matter what."

Yu Zhiqing's pretty face flushed red: "But... what about Xining...?"

"Xi Ning went to Shanghai," Cao Kun quickly reassured her.

Yu Zhiqing's heart skipped a beat.

She knew perfectly well what agreeing to him meant.

She opened her mouth, about to say something.

"Ring ring—"

The phone suddenly rang.

Yu Zhiqing answered the phone apologetically.

A moment later, her expression changed drastically.

Yu Zhiqing slammed her hand on the table and said coldly, "Boss, I've said it before, I absolutely disagree with handing He Yichen over to the Beijing police!"

"He committed the crime while walking on vines, why should they take over the case? What am I supposed to do when the victims ask me about it?"

"I don't care! Even if the capital sends people, I will never give in!"

After saying that, she hung up the phone immediately.

She looked at Cao Kun apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, something has come up at the bureau, I have to leave right away."

Cao Kun wasn't angry; instead, he laughed.

Looking at the stubborn look in her eyes, he suddenly realized that this was the real Yu Zhiqing.

She is not a woman dependent on anyone, but a sword of justice that dares to draw its blade even in the face of overwhelming power.

Cao Kun admired this very thing about her.

He said softly, "Go ahead. If you need anything, just let me know."

Yu Zhiqing was taken aback.

She had considered that Cao Kun might advise her not to take things too seriously or be too stubborn, and might even be unhappy.

But she never expected that he would support her so unconditionally.

Yu Zhiqing felt a surge of warmth in her heart, and she leaned forward to give him a light kiss on the cheek.

After the kiss, she realized what she had done, and her cheeks flushed bright red.

A blush crept up her cheeks, and she quickly turned and fled.

Cao Kun was the only one left in the coffee shop. He had a slight smile on his lips and his expression was full of reminiscence.

Cao Kun sat there and carefully took stock of everything.

Of his women, not counting the seven who were pregnant.

(That is, Liu Xin, Chen Lu, Li Meiwei, Zheng Kexin, Xu Yisha, Liu Peipei, and Yue Xin.)

Zhu Mengmeng was taken by Su Yue to familiarize herself with the company's business.

Qian Xining is far away in Shanghai, beyond our reach.

Lin Xiaotang is undergoing training at Kunlun Media's training program.

Yu Zhiqing was also extremely busy with many things to do.
